Alicia Keys Campaigns For Release Of Abducted Chibok Girls

American R&B singer Alicia Keys has implored the Nigerian government
not to relent in their pursuit for the release of the kidnapped Chibok
girls.

Keys was amazed that the girls had been in captivity for over 6
months now, and campaigned for their release.

She spoke just as the Bring Back Our Girls campaign group in Abuja,
last night, held a candle light vigil to mark the 180th day of the
abduction of the girls from Government Secondary School, Chibok, Borno
State.

"Putting the spotlight on these girls is very, very important to me
and I thought that it is my job to help shine the light on what is
going on and show people: this is still happening and we must not
forget and it is going on for six months," she said.
